codyman Posted August 27, 2022 Report Share Posted August 27, 2022 It's nice that those guard bands are included. Those are great, consistent gems of "free space" to park mics and IFBs these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osa Posted August 29, 2022 Report Share Posted August 29, 2022 Curious to know the “MHz Bands” might become available to zmt4 owners via firmware or are they hardware specific? If it’s the later, a zmt5 makes total sense but i love the idea of this unit with those extra bands. Also curious how long this unit might last on eneloop pro’s or equiv nimh batteries in a real world use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked about a CL3 in 940 band a few years back but don't believe it ever made it past FCC approval, and perhaps not enough demand for it. I would argue adding it now would square the next generation ZMT quite nicely against the other multi-band options available on the market.
